Thought it was going to be something special

I swear Falcon have used pretty much the same case for the last 3+ years... For $2500 I don't see anything special about that rig. The standard rig price seems to be $2023 (£1,237) before taxes... and thats the following spec:

Asus Rampage III Gene Intel X58 (Socket 1366) DDR3 microATX Motherboard £194.99(£162.49)
Intel Core i7 950 3.06GHz (Bloomfield) (Socket LGA1366 )£191.99(£159.99)
OcUK GeForce GTX 550Ti 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £114.98(£95.82)
Akasa Freedom Power 750W Modular Power Supply £97.99(£81.66)

GeIL 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz VALUE PLUS Triple Channel (GVP36GB1333C9TC) £35.99(£29.99)

Sub Total : £720.64
(This can be changed during checkout) Shipping : £11.75
VAT is being charged at 20.00% VAT : £146.48
Total : £878.87

And that gives you a nicer looking case... apart from that its pretty much like for like except that you don't get 3 yr warranty.

It just looks like a slightly nicer version of the Thermaltake lanbox... nothing special apart from it being Orange and you pay $400 for that.....


Sorry not impressed.

If you watch it it has a GTX580 inside not a 550Ti...

Well, I like the size, but it is ugly. Plus I would want to do my own system in that, not have to have a mainboard that is specific for the case. G4 sucks guys, it waas a much better network before it was G4.

Falcon Northwest really need to get out of 2006.

 

[LeJosh]

24GB of RAM?

:\

No... If you go with the standard X58 rig which is what you need to have the potential of 24GB of ram the standard GPU is definately a GeForce GTX 550Ti (1024MB) thank you very much
